A unique brew of 32 spellbinding stories about both legendary and modern-day witches.

Edited by Mike Resnick &Martin H. Greenberg

IT IS TIME FOR THE SPELLCASTERS

to gather together and enchant the unwary with thirty-two tales of curses cast or lifted, enemies defeated or reformed. Witches have generated fear and fascination down through the centuries, but now at last their stories can be told.

From a timeless Coven gathing on All Hallow's Eve, to an old woman brewing up the promise of love requited, to a witch and her cat with the power to rewrite history, let such masterful magic makers as Jane Yolen, Judith Tarr, Katherine Kerr, Roland Green, and David Gerrold lead you to the secret glens, the inner sanctums, the small-town eateries, isolated farms, and city parks where the true practitioners of magie claim vengeance for ancient wrongs, free innocents from evil enchantments, and play their own private games of power to transform our world.

WITCH FANTASTIC.

A WITCH'S BREW

is a powerful work of magic. And the 32 tales of magic dark and bright that have been specially brewed up for you in this volume are potent enough to sweep you out of the everyday world into the realms of the truly fantastic. So if you dare, sample such enchanting fare as:

"Dealing in Futures"  When a Nexus is bound to Earth, even the greatest enchantresses of all time may lose their grip on the past, present, and future....

"The Witch's Cat"  Will a bargain made between wizard and witch determine who ascends to England's throne?

"Birds of a Feather"  When technology and witchcraft combine, an untimely computer glitch could prove a warlock's undoing....

"Threefold to You"  Forced to cast a spell at the king's bidding, she could not be responsible for the consequences....
